    It is almost impossible to make a good match from a sample that small.

    Thanks Mike - I will look into Carre-noir. And yes, agreed, Gary, it is difficult with such a small sample. I can scan the book cover and upload it to What the Font - didn't know about that!

    My screen shot in post #5 is a cleaned-up and enlarged copy, but you might get a better one from a good scan.

    Another font that comes close in some parts is Bazhanov.

    Heck, I would likely email the publisher and see if they would be willing to share the name.

    Take care, Mike
